We try to vary the dive sites as much as possible, particularly from April to September, however in the winter we tend to dive in Loch Long or Loch Fyne as they are fairly quick to get to when the hours of daylight are few.

 

Here are a few sites many of us have visited:

 

Great Cumbrae

Little Cumbrae

The Caves, Loch Long

Ali’s Reef(Conger Alley), Loch Long

St.Catherines, Loch Fyne

Goirtein, Loch Fyne

Furnace, Loch Fyne

Seal Island, Loch Fyne

Kilbride Island, Loch Fyne

BrianatgarvellachsCarsaig Bay, Sound of Jura

Ardnoe Point, Sound of Jura

Sound of Kererra, Oban,

Maiden Island, Oban

Wreck SS. Breda, Oban

Sound of Mull wrecks

Lochaline

St. Kilda

Summer Isles (NW Scotland)

Scapa Flow German Fleet wrecks (Orkney)

St. Abbs

Eyemouth

Farne Islands (they’re in England!!)

 

 

 

Many sites are also popular with other SSAC Branches and other Diving Clubs.

Now that we have a new boat we will be trying to increase our selection of Dive Sites

Alan Pollock & Iain Kennedy pose (Aye, right!) in front of our Charter Boat at Lochaline, Sound of Mull. We have made a number of trips to the Sound of Mull over the years and very much hope to continue. The Sound of Mull has to be one of the best wreck diving areas in Scotland. There are also a number of excellent "Scenic" dive sites.

Trying to catch a plate full of Prawns is impossible. Better just to enjoy watching them underneath rock ledges.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Stkilda

Here is a place which we would all love to have as a "regular" dive location. St.Kilda is a World Heritage Site and the Archipelago is owned by the National Trust for Scotland.

One of the best views in the UK. Village Bay,St.Kilda on a tranquil afternoon. You can see the "Base" to the left of the Bay and some of the remains of the original village to the centre & right foreground, with the island of Dun behind.

And talking of "regulars", this would be fantastic! From left to right, in the Puff Inn, St.Kilda are Keith, Joe, Graham & Tom. The beer was £1/pint in May 2005. Brilliant! Unfortunately, the approach to St. Kilda is across 40miles of very open sea.
